Layered Egg & Quinoa Verrines

My friend Natalie eats this for breakfast at Penn Station every a.m. on her way to work in Manhattan at Pret-a-Manger, which is pronounced PRETT (rhymes with Brett) ah mahn-JHAY, (not "manger" as in baby Jesus).

Pret a Manger means "Ready to Eat", a play on words like "Pret a Porter" (ready to wear). Ah, the French are such pains aren't they?

Stacy, appropos of nothing, about a year ago I purchased the POLPO cookbook because it was advertised on your blog. I am coming back yea this year or so later to tell you how deliriously happy this book makes me. I have cooked my way through it and every meal is a joy. Thank you so much for the referral! A.

This is the most delicious healthy lunch I have ever had!! Just made it for lunch and it was soooooo good!!! Just used a light drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice. Thanks so much, cant wait to have it again tomorrow!
